Mr. Crewcab,
It is a shame that someone at Intermatic told you they have never tried it. I have a long history of working between Intermatic and MCV. Since the Multiwave first came out, I tried to get Intermatic to understand the value of looking past a controller just for the pool system. They didn't seem to grasp the big picture. I had sent their engineers a unit (which I let them keep as a gift of good will) and talked them through the setup over the phone. Then I talked with someone at MCV who tested my equipment over the phone and tried to collect data to expose the multiswitch and temp controls. I even met several times face to face with Intermatic engineers, product reps, and sales reps. I really couldn't get the MCV and Intermatic folks to work directly with each other and I got burned out as a middle man in hopes of getting controls I could resale to customers. The dream has faded and I have moved on content with limited controls that work but are not intuitive.
